Banding in the morning!



Recommended Posts

Good luck!! I got mine on Aug 2nd, the pain is there but it's more of an annoying pain so don't be scared, I had to get some medication to calm my anxiety and that helped a lot!! So if your really nervous just ask them for something. Let me know how you feel tomorrow if you are able to!

The biggest problem I had immediately after surgery was pain when I tried to sleep on my side, I had severe back pain already so sleeping on my back has always been an issue, the swollen area on my stomach felt Fluid filled and heavy for several days after surgery and that was a little uncomfortable but the pain was tolerable with a little liquid hydrocodone that my doc gave me.....I did have a little trouble breathing a few hours after surgery but they left me on the oxygen and sent a respiratory therapist in to see me every four hours and everything turned out fine. GOOD LUCK!!!

Hi. I read about pain and was worried. I had no pain at all. Went to work 3 days later. Stayed overnight at hospital bec I suffer from diabetes. I was glad n happy to bec u want to make sure everything is ok before u go home. Only prob I had was getting out of bed. No gas then. Now more after eating. Just an issue to deal with...nothing more. My nutritionist said I had no pain bec I drank go veggie a powder drink substitue providing u with lots of veggies we normally dont eat. It will all depend on yr body. Everyone I read has a different experience. In the end, the majority would do it sgain if they have to including me. Keep me posted post op.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
